Rumi:

 

We are the mirror as well as the face in it.

 

We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity.

 

We are pain and what cures pain both.

 

We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.

 

I want to hold you close like a lute so we can cry out with loving.

 

You would rather throw stones at a mirror?

 

I am your mirror, and here are the stones.

Am I the menu?

Then I may as well eat it too..

 

 

Am I the map?

Then I may as well sit on it for my vacation...
